VCO Phase Noise Degradation
vs.
Temperature and Offset
(VCO Relocked at Each Temperature
Vcc = 3.3 V, AC_TEMP_COMP = 5)
The above plot shows how much the VCO phase noise typically change over temperature relative to room temperature. The typical values for
represent an average over all frequencies and part options and therefore there are some small variations over part options and frequencies
that are not shown. VCO phase noise numbers room temperature are reported in the electrical specifications. A negative value indicates a
phase noise improvement.

(1) The table shows the typical degradation for VCO phase noise when the VCO is locked at one temperature and the temperature is
allowed to drift to another temperature. A negative value indicates a phase noise improvement.
